59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.
Chapter 52 Apples and Oranges
"Brother Xiaofeng, Brother Haozi, are you drinking soda?"
Seeing the three of them coming back, the children in the alley ran over.
The leaders were Liu Guangqi and Liu Guangtian, two of Liu Haizhong's three sons.
As the sons of the second uncle in Compound No. 95, they are quite prestigious among the children.
However, he was beaten badly by the two brothers of his original body in the past. Although he was older than Chen Feng, he called him brother instead.
"Brother Haozi, is this soda sweet?"
"It's very sweet, even better than White Rabbit candy, and it has gas in it. After drinking it, your stomach will make gas."
"How much is this?"
"It's ten cents a bottle. My brother is very respectable, so people gave it to him directly. There are three bottles in total."
"Wow, Brother Xiaofeng is so awesome."
A group of teenagers from a nearby alley looked at the bottle of soda in his hand with envy and chattered non-stop.
Chen Hao held up the bottle proudly and told them what the soda tasted like.
Chen Feng walked back quickly and saw Chen Jianguo lying on the stool at the door, holding a book in one hand and reading it with great interest.
He has good eyesight and can read the title of the book clearly - "Dream of Red Mansions".
"Strange, my second uncle doesn't look like an artistic youth."
Walk up and hand over the soda bottle.
Chen Jianguo put the book down in surprise, reached out to take it away, and asked, "Nephew, it's a good thing, but where did you get the soda coupon?"
Chen Feng lowered his head and glanced at the book.
'When the two of them were about to disperse, they were about to straighten their clothes. At this time, Wang Po pushed the door open, made a fuss, clapped her hands, and said, "You two did a good job..."'
Oh, is Second Uncle thinking about love?
Without waiting for him to read a few more sentences, Chen Jianguo, who was extremely quick to react, immediately picked up the book.
If the competition had taken place that night, with his speed, he would definitely not have lost so badly.
"Wang Po, Water Margin?" Chen Feng said with a deliberate smile.
The three big words "Dream of Red Mansions" blocked his entire vision.
"That's right!" Chen Jianguo said calmly.
"You need a fake book cover to read Water Margin. Do you think I'm stupid?" Chen Feng said contemptuously, "Second Uncle, with your IQ, how can you be a police officer and catch thieves?"
"Go, go and study hard."
Chen Jianguo was not embarrassed at first, but he became very embarrassed after being teased by his eldest nephew.
He handed the little girl to the old lady, went into the room, took a fishing rod and a fish bucket and went to the North Sea.
When he came out, Chen Hao was holding a comic book and sitting on a bench in the yard.
Behind him, on his left and right sides, there were several children standing and watching.
Beihai Park is still very lively.
Many people use thick fishing lines and small fish to catch wild ducks.
Chen Feng found a place with few people, caught two mallards, and then turned to go to Professor Wu's home.
First light knock, second heavy knock, third step back, knock lightly, pause for 1 second, knock twice hard, then step back behind the door and wait.
"Squeak!"
The door opened to reveal a middle-aged man. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Chen Feng, but he quickly reacted when he noticed the fishing rod, fish bucket, and the mallard duck in the bucket.
"You must be Xiao Chen, right? Please come in. My father has said that you are as handsome as Pan An and as beautiful as Song Yu. You are indeed a handsome man."
Chen Feng secretly praised him in his heart.
Look at what this person said. No wonder he lives in Compound No. 93 while others live in official buildings.
"Uncle Wu, I'm here to exchange for food."
After Chen Feng entered, he found that there was a middle-aged person in the room today...daughter, sister, daughter-in-law?
"Old Wu, who is this comrade?"
"Wife, this is Xiao Chen that Dad mentioned before." Seeing his wife's confusion, Mr. Wu said, "Soft-shelled turtle and loach."
The short-haired young woman immediately understood.
'This uncle is lucky in love!'
Chen Feng is still used to communicating with Professor Wu. Although Mr. Wu sounds sweet, one can tell his identity from the first few seconds he opens his mouth. He is definitely an old man.
He is not the only channel for the Wu family to exchange meat.
Mr. Wu said to his wife, "Bring up a glass of sugar water. Xiao Chen, sit down. Are you planning to exchange the mallard for food coupons?"
Chen Feng nodded and said, "Yes, rice is best, but vegetable coupons and oil coupons are also OK."
Mr. Wu walked forward, looked at the mallard duck in the fish bucket, picked it up and looked at it.
He opened the mallard's mouth and said with a smile, "Did you catch this?"
"Yes, the mallard is a little silly." Chen Feng replied.
Mr. Wu smiled and said directly: "Your fishing line is very good."
Chen Feng smiled and said, "Uncle is a policeman, right?"
Wu Yulong asked with great interest: "How did you know?"
Chen Feng replied, "My second uncle Chen Jianguo is from the Criminal Investigation Division of the Dongcheng Branch. Every time I catch something and bring it back, he can tell where I caught it at a glance."
This is actually nonsense. The reason he made this guess is because Chen Jianguo was on vacation.
He went to Professor Wu's house several times but never saw them.
This time, his second uncle was on vacation, and the other party was also on vacation. At the same time, they were in Dongcheng District. The other party paid so much attention to details. When several suspicious points were connected together, he couldn't help but think so.
"Old slick Chen Jianguo is your second uncle?" Wu Yulong said in surprise, "You two don't look alike at all."
"Comrade Chen, please have some sugar water." Mrs. Wu came out with some tea.
"Thank you, Auntie." Chen Feng took the cup and said.
"Uncle, do you know my second uncle? Are you both from the East City Branch?" Chen Feng asked.
Wu Yulong shook his head and said, "No, I'm from another department, but I've solved cases with your second uncle's criminal investigation team before. Your second uncle's martial arts are really powerful, but he's a little timid. He hides behind even though he has the strength."
Chen Feng held back his laughter.
How to say it, under day after day of propaganda, countless patriotic young people sacrificed their lives and shed their blood for national construction.
Just like the rich son in "To Live", he responded to the call, actively donated blood, and eventually died of blood loss.
Behind the seemingly black humor, there are actually many more devout patriots, especially in the northwest desert.
In comparison, Chen Jianguo, who obviously has real kung fu skills and comes from a red family, is naturally an impressive oddity.
"My grandfather said that you should not compete with your colleagues for credit and should learn to share the benefits."
Wu Yulong took a glance and felt that he had seen it wrong.
This uncle and nephew don't look alike, but they have exactly the same personalities and are both difficult to fool.
It looks like there will be a tough battle today.
"Two mallard ducks for 5 yuan. I'll give you 4 jin of rice coupons, 2 liang of peanut oil coupons and an apple. How about that?"
A pound of rice cost about 1 cents, but two pounds of rice coupons were worth more than 1961 yuan in the ghost market (in 3, two pounds of food coupons were worth yuan in the ghost market, which was more than ten times the price of grain).
As for oil coupons, each person in the old city could receive a 3-liang oil coupon every month, mostly in the form of soybean oil and sanitary oil (also known as cottonseed oil).
Peanut oil is only released in small quantities during the Chinese New Year and other festivals.
Luckily it’s National Day now and it’s available in Wangfujing!
Chen Feng didn’t know the price of oil coupons in the ghost market, but he definitely knew that he had lost money.
"3 liang of oil coupons, plus an apple and an orange."
Wu Yulong said with a look of regret: "I should have emptied the trash can earlier."
There happened to be orange peels in the trash can.
But Chen Feng didn't actually see it, he just smelled the scent of orange peel.
